00:00We'll be right back.

00:11The pick is officially in with

00:14the second overall selection of

00:15the 2024 NFL Draft. The

00:17Washington Commanders have

00:19drafted Jaden Daniels out of

00:21LSU. The 2023 Heisman Trophy

00:25winner. Kev, we go right to you

00:26because although Jaden Daniels

00:28wasn't always the favorite to

00:30be the second overall pick of

00:31this draft, he wasn't always

00:33the favorite to be the second

00:35overall selection. What did the

00:37odds say in the weeks leading

00:39up to the NFL Draft? You are

00:40absolutely spot on when we first

00:42had eyes on these markets. The

00:44idea is it would be Drake May

00:46because Drake May was always

00:48expected to be a round one

00:50quarterback. Jaden Daniels got

00:52to this point through his

00:53Heisman season last year at LSU.

00:56As tempting as it is for me to

00:57I think that is dangerous for

00:58Washington. I'll leave that for

01:00others to discuss, but this is a

01:02market that saw Jaden start to

01:04pull away and then all of a

01:06sudden it came back. Daniels in

01:08the news, not positively with

01:10his thoughts on what Washington

01:12was doing throughout this

01:13process. Agent tweets, top golf

01:16apparently not his deal. Drake

01:18May loved it. Washington didn't

01:20care despite sending them all to

01:22golf, but we saw minus 110

01:24either direction for May and

01:26Daniels within the last 10 days.

01:29Daniels though, once he took

01:31that spot back, continued to

01:33march away. Minus 115 to minus

01:36175 to minus 340. And once we

01:39saw that minus 1000 number, it

01:42was all but done that

01:43Washington was going to take

01:45Jaden Daniels Ben out of LSU.
